Rosemary Pepper Crusted Tenderloin Steaks with Honey Shiraz Glaze

http://www.lightscameracook.com

Recipe:

2 tenderloin steaks, about 1" thick
Salt and pepper, to taste
4 tsp fresh rosemary, finely chopped (reserve 1 tsp)
2 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/2 cup Shiraz
1/3 cup Honey

Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat until very hot, one to two minutes. Sprinkle steak with rosemary, salt and pepper. Add olive oil to heated skillet and swirl to coat. Place steaks in skillet and sear each side to create a crust (about two minutes per side). Reduce heat to medium-low and continue cooking to desired doneness, turning occasionally. Transfer steaks to plates and keep warm.

Reduce heat to low and add wine and honey. Stir well to combine and scrape up any browned bits from bottom of the pan. Allow to simmer for two minutes, then add remaining teaspoon of chopped rosemary and stir. Pour glaze over the resting steak.

Side:

1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
3 oz Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled

Heat a skillet over medium high heat for two minutes. Add olive oil and swirl to coat. Add tomatoes in a single layer and sear for two minutes. Shake the pan around, flipping the tomatoes, and season with salt and pepper. Sear 1 minute more. Remove to a plate and crumble Gorgonzola over top, allowing it to melt slightly. Serve immediately.

Enjoy with a glass of Toasted Head Shiraz or Chardonnay.
